1945 Australian National Airways Stinson crash
- ... that the 1945 Australian National Airways Stinson crash occurred due to metal fatigue and when investigators finished their investigation they believed it was the first example of in-flight failure of an aircraft structure attributable directly to fatigue?

- ALT1 would be a contentious question because it is inevitable that different people and organisations will have different views as to which accident was truly the first to be caused by metal fatigue. The source document states only that, as far as was known to the Investigation Panel (with the information available at the time), this was the first such accident.
